| | J.K. Rowling's Secret Street View
Following the completion of the seven Harry Potter books and eight films, J.K. Rowling has something new to announce. Even though this is not a new book, we have been informed it is something equally exciting.
As a teaser before the official announcement, ten letters have been hidden on the website below for you to find. To locate them you need to find ten sets of coordinates, enter them into the search box one set at a time, and take a look around. This is the eighth coordinate: 51.781383,-2.56844
The rest will be revealed among nine other Harry Potter fan sites at intervals throughout the 15th and 16th of June 2011. Find the coordinates, enter them on the site below and you could be one of the first to piece the word together.
(Please note - These letters are magic, therefore do not exist in the real world…)
Good luck to you all. Secret Street View
--------------- UPDATE: Below are coordinates that have already been revealed (we will update as more are released):
Leaky Cauldron: 42.523356,-70.890698
Mugglenet: 51.530377,-0.123259
Harry Potter Xperts: -34.410362,150.900671 UDPATE #2: Five more coordinates have been revealed:
Portkey: 43.640408,-79.388795
UniversHarryPotter: 29.952313,-90.067849
ClubdoSlogue: -23.547149-46.520266
HPANA: -29.239004,24.507602
BlogHogwarts: 34.730748,137.383786 UPDATE #3: Nine letters have been revealed so far. Clue No. 10 has yet to come ... |

MERLIN'S BEARD I KNOW WHAT IT IS!
When I was at Wizarding World in March and I went for Brekkie, I accosted the fellow that was walking us through the park and picked his brain for as much info as possible. He told me that on the anniversary of the park opening, there was going to be a big to-do, especially because it is in the contract with Jo that once DH Pt2 has been released, they must add something else DH related *to* the park!
In total the letters are so far:
1.E
2.T
3.0
4.T
5.O
6.R
7.R
8.P
9.E
10.?
The Do Not Disturb Sign is back on her door - as my very good friend Kaz said - it's 2006 all over again!!

So my previous Post was deleted, It's ok though I was only trying to help people find the coordinates... There are theories that is (highlight with your mouse to see possible spoilers) pottermore or morepotter.. If she does another book or movie I think that the Story of the Original Order of the Phoenix or Voldemort's rise to power would be appropriate so that we may understand the background of the Wizarding World.

Although I am curious as to whether we'll get a resolution/explanation later tonight, or in a few days.

| oh potter
So i think it's either MORE POTTER or it could be POTTER LORE, like a book of all things from the wizarding world, like an encyclopedia cause I thought that was in the talks. either way I guess it results in there being more potter! yay!!!
